Must be the only time I'm aware of that being an advantage. So everyone - stop wondering, -it is blue and black and you are looking it wrong :-P
- jsprogrammer 12y agoI don't think so. I've looked at 'color-blindness' tests quite a few times and can always distinguish the numbers. I can see how someone might think the black could be gold, due to the shimmer in some places (although it still mostly looks blackish). I don't see how anyone can see the rest of the dress as white though. It looks like dyed blue fabric...taken with a horrible camera/exposure.
- thaumasiotes 12y agoThere's no "looking at it wrong". If you take a photograph of something, there's no way to tell from the photograph what color the thing is. That's because the raw visual data (light of wavelengths x, intensity y) depends much more strongly on the lighting the object is subject to than on its inherent optical properties. But your visual system is designed to ignore local lighting and extract the inherent optical properties, which are what you mean by "color".
